water and frustrated!!!
Hi all, I have two questions. The first is about water. I don't like to drink water, but see that it must play a role in weight loss, otherwise you guys wouldn't talk about it so much. Why is it important to drink plain water (instead of tea, coffee, diet soda, etc.). Also, does it matter if I drink it all at once or does…

What do you eat for lunch in a restaurant?
Yesterday we went out for lunch. I really had a hard time trying to figure what there was on my diet.

I asked the waitress how big the steak was,…

Wait 15 minutes!
Something that I read about and I think works really well is after you finish what is on your plate and you still feel hungry (or so you think you do) Wait 15 minutes.. it takes about that long for your food to fill you up and give you that content - full feeling. If you are still hungry after 15 minutes - then maybe go…
